Join the DVD Talk Review Panel - Now Accepting Applications
We have a spot open on the DVD Talk Review Panel, so we're taking applications again.
If you are interested in being a part of the DVD Talk Review Panel please email me the following to [email protected]
- A sample DVD Review [You will NOT be considered without a writing sample]
Here are a few examples to look at for format/etc:

http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/read.php?ID=29161
http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/read.php?ID=28993
- The Genres you enjoy/would like to review.
- A brief run down of the equipment specs you use to view DVDs
- If you are interested in reviewing Adult DVDs as well and which genres you'd
be interested in.
- If you have a HD-DVD player or Blu-Ray Disc Player. (if so if you have a 1080p display system).
- Where you are located (Must be in US)
- What are your favorite DVDs and least favorite DVDs and why?
- What you think you can bring to the DVD Talk Review Panel?
Reviewers must be willing to review at least 4 DVDs per month and turn reviews around within 14 days of getting a DVD. We send out hundreds of DVDs per month to our current review panel (of about 50 writers).
We have a great Review system designed from the ground up by a DVD reviewer which is centered around matching our reviewers with the movies they like.
Thanks
Geoff

DVD Talk Ultimate Edition
I'd love too be a DVDtalk reviewer but sadly I live up here in Canada & I admittedly need to improve on my spelling/grammar in order to write a real good review.
Anyways the guys reviewing DVDs currently are doing a great job & congrats to whoever gets the spot.

Thanks everyone who sent in their application. I've got a TON of them to go through. I think we've got all the applications we need for mainstream reviewers now, but we do still need more Adult Reviewers.

I hate to say this but I would so like to do this but I already compress too much of my time already.
Maybe soon hopefully I"ll be ready for the casting call.

Just noticed this thread. Any chance you're still accepting applications, gkleinman? I write DVD reviews for my newspaper and am looking to do a little bit more, gain more experience. I could easily provide you a link to my columns page on the newspaper's entertainment site.

I myself am also intrigued by this notion, and didn't even notice this thread. Anyway, I would love to send an application if it is at all possible; I've been a huge film buff all my life and have been in the DVD game since 1997. I also wrote movie reviews for my high school newspaper and would happily send a sample review, answers to questions, and anything else needed.
I also forgot to mention how I am very willing to expand my horizons in writing, something I have taken pride in for an extremely long time.
